Today’s theme in the 12 Days of Christmas nail art challenge is presents. I really enjoyed creating this one and I hope you’ll like it too! These pictures almost didn’t make it to the blog. Something weird happened while I was copying them from my camera and I lost the whole folder. I tried to restore them but I couldn’t and I thought they were lost forever… luckily my boyfriend came to the rescue and he was able to restore them! Now we can all enjoy them 🙂 (more…)

Today is definitely my least favourite day of the challenge this year! I did these nails in a rush as I didn’t have a lot of time today and ‘inspired by a flag’ is anyway not the most exciting of prompts. These nails would probably never have been on my blog if I wasn’t determined to finish the challenge! (more…)

Today I have some simple but very pretty nail art for you. A few months ago I was excited to see Essence release their dalmatian glitter – a black and white glitter topper. I love it and it went perfectly over a gradient! (more…)

It’s day 3 of the Nail Art A Go-Go Challenge hosted by Gnarly Gnails and today’s theme is Warm vs Cool. I decided to go with not just a warm vs cool colour scheme, but also actual warm vs cool images combined with the absolute hottest and coldest polishes I have in my stash! (more…)

In case you’re wondering why I would do an autumny mani when here in South Africa it’s summer, well, I didn’t plan it that way! I just picked out some colours I thought would go well together and only once I was finished did I realise they were a pretty autumny combination 🙂 So for those of you in the Northern hemisphere – enjoy this as an end-of-autumn water marble!(more…)
